Developing countries demand a dual-track climate agreement

Despite the chattering of the Copenhagen Conference, the Parties to the talks are still very much divided. Two days before the meeting, the European Union, the United States, China and other delegations have expressed their positions. The United States and the European Union are trying to abolish the Kyoto Protocol, establish a binding agreement, include developing countries and implement single-track. This has been resisted by developing countries.　　For the rest of the week, the western developed world will be able to make a substantive commitment to facilitate the Conference to reach an agreement, let the hearts of the people hang. Protocol mechanism: Dual-track PK single-track developed countries: a legal agreement on the binding of its elements is established on the basis of the Kyoto Protocol Developing countries: Implementing a dual-track system, making decisions on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol in many venues in Copenhagen, two parallel meeting rooms are often visible, One door marked KP (Kyoto Protocol), a door marked with LCA (long-term cooperative action under the Framework Convention on Climate Change), which is the typical dual track of the post-Kyoto Protocol era.　　A negotiation and consultation on the emission reduction obligations of the developed countries for the second commitment period of 2012 years after the designated emission reduction targets in annex I to the Kyoto Protocol, and one on the cooperation actions of a wide range of countries under the Framework Convention on Climate Change. What kind of mechanism will be formed after the Copenhagen Conference? There are great differences between the North and South countries at present. Developed countries advocated dual-track mergers and established single-track. At a news conference 7th, the European Union group said it hoped the Copenhagen Conference would establish a binding legal agreement on its elements, based on the Kyoto Protocol.　　It is intended to establish single-track and to combine the two by reaching a new agreement and to include developing countries. However, single-track's claim has been opposed by developing countries. In the afternoon of 7th, the deputy director of China's National Development and Reform Commission, Xie Zhenhua, said in a news conference that developing countries, including China, insisted on a dual-track approach, and that the Copenhagen Conference should decide on the Convention and the Protocol in accordance with the principles of the Convention, the Protocol and the Bali road map "If the Kyoto Protocol is to be merged, the principle of ' common but differentiated responsibility ' will have little substance." Dual-track is the fundamental requirement of developing countries. Representatives from developing countries also indicated that the Kyoto Protocol was irreplaceable. "We are opposed to another legally agreed instrument that binds the obligations of developed countries and those of developing countries against the principle of ' common but differentiated responsibility '."　　The representative of the Sudan made that clear.　　"We will not compromise and will not forget the effects of the developed countries on the climate", speaking on behalf of the African Group, the representative of Algeria said that the Convention should not be undermined and that the Kyoto Protocol must not be terminated, and that the African Group called for a transparent and equitable high-level meeting. The outcome of Copenhagen will be the replacement of the Kyoto Protocol? Or is it a continuation of the Kyoto Protocol? Or the "twin brothers" of the Kyoto Protocol? On this issue, the jointIvo Depol, Executive Secretary of the National Framework Convention on Climate Change, said three scenarios are possible.　　Goal: 40%pk25% developed countries: The promise of a 25% reduction in emissions by 2020 is still far from developing countries: the demand for developed countries to cut emissions by at least 40% per cent for developed countries in 2012 ~2020, developed and developing countries are also very much divided. According to the information released by Xie, the developing countries are proposing that the developed countries must take the lead in reducing emissions by the way of the Bali road map, according to the two camps. According to the IPCC's recommendations, the developed countries will have to cut emissions by at least 25%~40% by 2020, and China and G77 require the developed countries to cut emissions by at least 40%, and smaller island nations affected by climate change will require the developed countries to cut emissions by at least 45%, says Xie.　　Because developing countries were first to develop and to have space for development and emissions, developed countries had to make more room for future development and emissions in developing countries. So far, however, the verbal commitments made by developed countries are still far from enough, and the EU's medium-term targets for reducing emissions are only 30%, and they are not unconditional. On the U.S. side, President Obama's commitment is estimated to cut emissions by 17% on a 2005 basis, even lower than the 1990 benchmark.　　Canada, so far, no commitments have been made.　　As a whole, the minimum target of 25% per cent emissions by 2020 remains a distance, as far as the commitments made by the developed world are concerned. Support: Vague PK action developed countries: reluctance to commit to specific obligations, financial and technical support to developing countries vague developing countries: the developed countries need to have practical action on climate Change Convention requirements, developed countries must provide developing countries with additional adequate financial and technical support,　　Helping developing countries to improve their capacity to mitigate and adapt at home is also a controversial focus of the Copenhagen Conference. Yet negotiations between the two sides have so far failed to reach a compromise. While the developed countries were unwilling to commit themselves to specific obligations, they wanted to induce the commitments of developing countries with vague commitments.　　Developing countries are adamant that they will not accept any empty promises. "How much money does the developed world actually take, what kind of technology, the establishment of what kind of system to do this, the developed countries have not made a real commitment and practical action, the negotiations must solve this problem, how much money you take, what to do, how to manage, how to achieve, what technology transfer, To establish a system and mechanism to do it in real. Instead of a blank cheque as it used to be, it is not implemented.　　"said Xie.　　According to him, the China National Development and Reform Commission brought 6 industry 42 technology to Copenhagen, prepared and developed countries on whether to carry out technology transfer and technical cooperation negotiations, but the other side is always vague, still open a bad cheque. Detection: Accept PK rejectionThe developed countries: the mitigation commitments of developing countries also need to be reported, verifiable and verifiable in developing countries: Autonomous emissions reduction does not accept "three can" in order to promote the success of the Conference without the financial and technical commitments of developed countries, including China, India,　　Big developing countries, such as Brazil, have made their own mitigation commitments. At present, Western countries do not admit this, on the one hand, the commitment to recognize the developing countries is very strong, on the other hand, also want to vigorously promote the developing countries to make greater efforts.　　The developed countries also suggested that the mitigation commitments of developing countries should also be involved in the "Three Can" (which can be reported, verifiable and verifiable) and subject to the international community's supervision. Developing countries insist that the autonomous emission reduction of developing countries does not accept "three can". China's energy consumption per unit of GDP has decreased by 47% per cent, 2005-2010 years, and the energy consumption per unit of GDP has decreased by around 20%, said Xie.　　These are autonomous acts and do not receive financial and technical support from developed countries.　　Developing countries receive the international community's financial and technical support for emissions reduction actions to accept "three can", but the autonomous action does not accept "three." Delegates should lay the groundwork for higher negotiations at yesterday's press conference, the Executive Secretary-General of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC), Boer, called on negotiators to provide a cornerstone for the ministerial negotiations and the negotiations of national leaders in those six days to determine that national leaders have a clear idea of what they should do.
